Hi,
I was working with this hospitality company, I was hired as a chef for a new hospital by this company. I was given 60 percent of the salary I was promised. I was told I would get the remaining 40 percent once the hospital started. One year passed, the hospital didnt open, so I started looking for other opportunities since my career was gettting wasted. I found a job with a reputed compnay and I resigned. The company says they will not give me the 40 percent of my salary dues since I left the company before the hospital started. The deal of 60-40 was not done on paper, it was verbally agreed. But, I have a signed contract letter abt my 100 percent salary. In fact now they are telling me to return the extra salary which I was getting from my previous job. For example, in my previous job I was getting Rs 50,000 per month and this company offered me Rs 1, 00, 000 per month out of which every month they gave me Rs 60,000 and made a promise that the remaining Rs 40,000 would be given to me once the hospital starts plus my regular salary. Now, they are asking me to return Rs 10,000 which I got a hike after my previous employment. Is this possible to ask an employee to return the salary even though he was getting lesser than promised, Kindly ADVISE.
